1. Second Guess Decisions
1. 舉棋不定
Few decisions cannot be changed later if needed. Better to take action that wallow in inaction.
決定往往是可以在往後更改的,如果有這個必要的話。所以,與其舉棋不定,不如勇往直前。


2. Waste Time at the Proverbial Water-cooler
2. 在茶水間浪費時間
Some people waste a large percentage of their day "chatting it up" in the workplace. Instead, get your work done, and get out.
很多人會把一大塊工作時間浪費在茶水間裏和別人八卦。應該這樣做:接完水,轉身出門,坐回到位子上去。

3. Check Email 50 Times
3. 不停刷新郵箱
I love it when someone asks, "Did you get my email?" Um, when did you send it? "Like 10 minutes ago。" No. No, I didn't. Check email periodically when it makes sense in your schedule. And turn off those new mail dings and notifications.
最喜歡別人這樣問我:“收到我的郵件沒?” 額,你什麼時候發的?“10分鐘前。”不,我沒收到。只有新郵件內容在我的日程安排上很重要時,我才會定時刷新郵箱。關掉新郵件提醒。
4. Answer the Phone
4. 隨時接聽電話
I won't answer the phone while in the middle of something, meeting with someone else, or especially if I don't know who is calling.
我不會在做正事的半途中接聽電話,比如開會、會談;若來電的是個陌生號碼,則更不會接聽。

5. Wait For the Perfect Plan
5. 待到萬事俱備只欠東風時才行動
A good plan now, always beats a perfect plan next week. Circumstances are never going to be perfect. Don't wait.
今天有一個好計畫,遠勝於下周可能會產生的更完美計畫。周遭環境永遠不會變得百分百合心意,所以,還等什麼呢?行動吧。

6. Attend Unnecessary Meetings
6. 參加不必要的會議
Meetings are the single biggest time-waster in the workplace. Practice the "right to decline" when you do not need to be in attendance.
會議無疑是工作中最浪費時間的專案。當面對不必要的會議時,試著學會去合理地拒絕。

7. Work During Meetings
7. 在開會時工作
I will check my tech at the door during meetings. No open laptops. No phones or tablets. And no, you can't work during my meeting either.
我通常會在會議間隙查看電子設備。開會時,我不開筆記本、不看手機、不用平板電腦。同樣,別人在參加我的會議時,也要做到這一點。

8. Put It Off
8. 拖延症
When it comes to the tasks I don't want to do, I will adopt a "Just Do It Now" attitude. Do those unsavory tasks early in the day and get them out-of-the-way.
當遇到我不想做的任務時,我會帶著“索性現在就把它做完吧”的態度去做。把不喜歡的事情迅速解決掉,接下來的時間裏你就可以眼不見心不煩了。

9. Take On Unnecessary Tasks
9. 接受不必要的任務指派
I will say "No" where appropriate to tasks that are outside my domain. After all, you can't get your work done if you are doing everyone else's job.
面對我職責範圍以外的任務,我會果斷說“不”。畢竟,如果連自己的事都沒做好,又怎麼能去做別的事呢?

10. Start Before I Finish
10. 半途而廢
I will complete tasks to done, before starting new ones. Better to have finished the few important ones, that to have started lots of little ones.
一個任務沒完成以前,我不會開始做新的。先把最重要的幾件事做完,剩下的零碎瑣事就好辦了。
